about jenica

​​Jenica Rose Garcia is a little ol' animator from the Bay Area. She has always been drawing as a hobby, but decided to pursue it in high school after thinking a career in forensics was maybe too gloomy. Jenica's fond memories as a kid watching Scooby-Doo with her mom taught her the value of art and the happiness animation can bring to people.

Currently, Jenica studies animation and film at Loyola Marymount University, where she earned first place at the 34th Annual Juried Student Exhibition. In the future, she dreams of working on films that make others laugh. She loves doing portraits and developing stories that focus on love or the macabre. Other hobbies besides art and forensics include playing the melodica, bowling, and eating fried chicken.
